Any ideas how to fix the default Internet Search behavior in Windows XP?

[George Hester]

In Windows XP SP2 I have set the automatic search in Microsoft Internet
Explorer
6 this way. Open Microsoft Internet Explorer | Search | Change preferences
| Change Internet search behavior | Select the default search engine |
Google | OK.

I expect that is the way to Change [the] Internet search behavior. So I
type Greece in the address bar and hit <ENTER>. I arrive at the
search.msn.com search engine.

How do I fix this?

In Internet Explorer click on the Search button on the Toolbar. At the
top of the side window which appears is a New and a Customise button.
Click on the latter and deselect MSN and select another.

Seems to work for me.

This issue may have been addressed by removing the animation character in IE
6 Windows XP. I have not had a chance to try this but at least it is an
attempt at a solution to this issue.

OK that is a new one. I'll give that a shot after I get this XP back
online. Thanks.
